Title: Multimodal data fusion for brain-behavior analyses
Abstract: With increasing availability of multimodal data (neuroimaging, ecological momentary assessment, clinical, behavioral) collected across different timescales, there exists a need for methods to meaningfully analyze these data. Our lab does work at the intersection of computational neuroimaging and digital biomarkers to better track and treat a range of neuropsychiatric disorders. The focus of this talk will highlight ongoing work on elucidating brain-behavioral relationship with clinical implications using novel multimodal data fusion methods. In the first study to be presented, we used coupled tensor factorization (CTF) to jointly analyze functional brain network changes associated with symptom change in a transdiagnostic sample. In the second presented study, we used similarity network fusion (SNF) to determine relevant features from neuroimaging data and typing data in a mood disorder sample. These methods provide a flexible, adaptable way to jointly analyze dynamics across heterogenous data types for clinical inferences.
